Electrical Precautions

Be aware of the following precautions regarding the electrical system to avoid disruption of electrical signals and possible system malfunction.
  • DO use ONLY genuine INDIAN MOTORCYCLE parts and accessories designed for your model, and follow the instructions provided.
  • DO use the accessory power jack provided (if equipped).
  • If it is necessary to provide power to an item that does not use one of the previously mentioned power jacks, connect to the load side of the main circuit breaker and connect the ground wire to the engine ground at the front left side of the crankcase (near the circuit breaker). On DARK HORSE models the circuit breaker is located under the cover next to the oil filter adapter. On all other models it’s located under the cover behind the oil cooler.
  • DO NOT splice or cut any wires.
  • DO NOT tap in to any power or ground on the motorcycle unless specifically directed to do so by the INDIAN MOTORCYCLE instructions that come with the kit.
  • DO NOT back-probe electrical connectors on the vehicle unless directed to do so by the INDIAN MOTORCYCLE Service Manual.
